You can do it in PHP, HTML, or JavaScript, but it's only
possible to send the control HTTP header with PHP if there
is no body output sent yet, so PHP is out. I recommend:
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="<time>; url=<url>">
where <time> is the time to wait before refresh in seconds
and <url> is the _complete_ url to redirect to. Note that
the time and url are both inside the content property; they
are not seperate properties and the above is not a typo.
You can also do it with JS, but AFAIK you're better off with
the above.
